II seems that Gen. Sherman fully ap-

child relative to the proposition to return

Nine. Bcrnhardt and company left New
York for England on Saturday. Her man
ager states that her tour in this country was
a tremendous financial success. From the
commencement of the season in South
America about two hundred and fifty-two
performances were given, from which was
realized grand total of 81 DOC, 900, half of
which was clear profit to the managers
and the star. The celebrated French actor
Coquelin will visit this country and South
America next season, but it is hardly prob
able that he will carry home with him as
many dollars as Bernhardt did.

A woman's Quiet Heroism.
From the Troy Times.

Many heroic deed passes by unnoticed, and
many quieI Ives have elements of courage and
fidelity ting oonor humanity. Such a life ended
in this ciEoenot long ago young women
whose hifsand had died leaving quite number
of unpaH debts behind him, determined that
she wo!H devote her life TO the payment Of the
obligX " MS. She was left without any means
savel ut the labor Of her hands could give her
butt pobtaiIed work from a collar factory and
as5H dbusly ~ about the task before her Re-
fubng TO accept the canceling of some Of the
debts, which was offered her by her creditors
she toiled early and late.
But her health was not strong enough to bear
the burden and she gradually sank into hope
less disease. Almost to the very day Of her
death, however, she cheerfully continued her
efforts to maintain the honor OF her husband by
removing all claims which had stood against
HIM The brave fidelity of such life shines by
contrast with by far too many deeds Of a selfish
world.

Dakota is getting ready to demand adj
mission into the Union next winter. The
Philadelphia Record suggests that if Con-
gress divides the territory of Dakota into
two States, it be by a north and south line,
rather than by one east and west. The
reason of this is that if the line were run
east and west, the Northern Pacific railroad
would own one State, and the Union Pacific
railroad the other. These two
powerful corporations are pretty
certain TO run the two States,
whether the territory is divided by a north
and south or an east and west line.

The New York press is pretty certain that
the jury system in that State wants good
deal of reforming and it is about right.
The effort to get a jury in the Jacob Sharp
case showed it to be very defective. Several
OF the judges have spoken so plainly and
forcibly in and out of court in relation to
the subject, and the popular attention has
been SO thoroughly excited in the matter
that movement for the correction Of the
existing imperfection is in the natural
course Of events inevitable. 1t does not
take long to select jury to try an offender
whose pockets are empty and whose case is
not sensational. But when distinguished
lawyers are employed for the defence and
the prosecution is put upon its mettle, it is
unavoidable that objection should be made
to most of the talesmen in the procession of
imbeciles, deaf men and all sorts of people
otherwise disqualified that pass under the
ordeal of examination.

A MAN Suddenly Disappears aud
HIS Whereabouts Unknown.
Two weeks Tuesday John Dougherty
left his boarding house, No. 402 East
Fourth street, and has not been seen or
heard of since, and his landlady, Mrs.
Orumpton, and the boarders, are consid-
erably mystified over his mysterious dis
appearance. Dougherty is Scotchman,
about As years old and unmarried, and
had been working at Seidel h Haatings'
rolling mill until the day before his dis
appearance, when he became involved in
a quarrel with two negro employees of the
same mill and he was discharged. He
drew his pay the next day, went TO his
boarding house, dressed himself and went
out, since which time no definite informa-
ton has been received from him.
II is said that he was seen at Seventh
and Church streets on that same even
ing. He left all his clothes and other
effects at his boarding house, and as he
did not owe for board his friends are
alarmed lest something has happened to
him. They say that the two oolored men
were heard to utter threats against Dough-
erty, saying that they would get even
with him, or language TO that effect, but
nothing definite can be ssoertained.
Mrs. Orumpton, his landlady, and bis
fellow boarders say that he was regular
In his habits and of quiet and orderly
disposition. He occasionally drank Q
little too much they say, but he was never
very drunk. The police have not beer
notified of his disappearance.

the necessary provisions to guard against

Sensation Over taae Reported TrRns-

ahsai;latad Press Dispalcb by Special Wire
BALTIMORE, March 9.-Robert Garrett,
president of the Baltimore j Ohio Rail-
road Company, was seen to-day but had
nothing TO say in regard 10 the reported
arrangement for a transfer OF a control of
that road. The New York Times, con-
tanning statement which appears to be
authentic, has created sensation here.
The city as corporation is largely in
tereBted in the B. d o., and there are
private interests which are opposed to
the control of the road going out of
Baltimore hands. The B. d. o. road has
been looked upon as Baltimore enter
prise, and while Mr.. Garrett has pre-
served a reticence as to everything that
has been rumored, there are many who
fear that there is truth in the statements
published in the Times. There is con-
yiction that if the road shall pass into
other hands the express and telegraph
systems will go with it. The matter is
discussed on the exchanges and the street
corners, and while some approve, many
condemn the action.
BELIEVED AND REGRETTED IN BALTIMORE.
Associated Press Dispatch by Special Wires.
BALTIMORE, March 9.-Mr. Garrett has
been seen since o'clock to-day, and the
statement in the New York Times was
read by him. He still persisted that he
has nothing to say about the rumored
deal. It is stated, however, by one to
whom Mr.. Garrett talked that he used
the expression, ''We are in New York"
The excitement increases here because
of the refusal of Mr.. Garrett TO make
any communication in regard to the mat
ter. The most careful inquiry cannot
discover that the CITY authorities have
been consulted, though the city owns
more than ona-fifth of the entire stock Of
the B. & o. railroad.
The city, with the Johns Hopkins
University and the Garrett family, own a
majority of the stock. In telegraph
circles there appears as much Ignorance
of what has been going on as elsewhere.
The people here generally have settled
down to the conclusion that deal has
been effected and that Baltimore will
become only way station in the great
railroad system.
